Engineering, Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering. You will start with high income after the college without the need for Master. If you eventually decide to get either master or PhD, most employers will pay for it. Most of the colleges have free Engineering PhD programs.

You aren't going to make $300K in nurse anesthesia unless you lives in rural South Dakota and you're the only anesthesia provider for 100 miles.
Much more realistic is $125K-$150K. The job market is really, really saturated.
No, it's not "really, really saturated".... Maybe in Florida and similar low paying states but certainly not in VA, MD or DC area.

This is more the exception, though. I'd venture to say that "most" doctors end up making > 200K by the time they retire.

I wouldn't say that for most people in Finance. There are plenty of sub 100K jobs..

Agree with finance and consulting. Best if you go to a top 10 MBA program (if you haven't already gone to a top undergrad bschool). Also helpful to have very strong quant and even programming skills for a lot of the finance jobs.

I see a lot of posts about going to Law school and Med school is not worth it. Which other career offers high income potential ($300K+) for a good number of their constituents other than these two that is "not worth it"?
